London-based rising star, Bee, aka Broken Hearts Club today releases her EP, Welcome To The Broken Hearts Club. Spanning 6 tracks, the EP explores themes of heartbreak and the complexities of relationships. It features previously released singles including (Welcome To The) Broken Hearts Club which was Alyx Holcombe’s Track Of The Week on her BBC Introducing Rock show, F**k Moving On and Hate It, plus three unheard tracks. Bee teamed up with long-term collaborator, Marc Dowding who produced the EP, and who she also co-wrote with across the body of work. Bee also co-wrote tracks Hate It and Town Called Misery with writer/producer, Jason Perry (McFly, Don Broco and more). Listen to Welcome To The Broken Hearts Club here.
Bee has said of the EP, “Welcome To The Broken Hearts Club is a shout of freedom. A rollercoaster of emotions and like a mirror of empowerment – I believe everyone can find a piece of themselves in it.”
This new music marks the launch of Bee’s new project and inclusive community, aptly named the Broken Hearts Club. It was born out of the idea that Bee had, about wanting to evolve her live performances beyond the traditional format. At a show recently, Bee got tattooed with a broken heart on stage, whilst conducting a Q&A with her audience! Bee also wanted to create a safe space amongst her fans, and break down that artist/fan divide so that everyone feels like they’re part of a family. Growing up in a very conservative Lithuania with strict parents, Bee kept her true identity and sexuality hidden until she moved to London 6 years ago. Here she is able to be her true authentic self, and no longer has to shy away from being gay and proud. Bee feels more confident and empowered than ever, and is finally making the music she has always wanted to make.
The songstress has been cutting her teeth on the live circuit over the last few years, and has played sold out shows in the UK, China, where she headlined Sneakercon in front of 20,000 people, Mexico, and in her hometown of Lithuania, where she headlined the Euro Basketball Final Four Fan Zone, to 10,000 fans. Bee is most at home when on stage, and playing live. The bigger, the better as far as she is concerned, and is setting her sights on one day playing festivals from Download to Glastonbury Festival.
Bee has garnered over 34 million streams on Spotify alone, and over 53 million views on YouTube, on her solo project’s pages. This is no mean feat for an independent artist, and she’s showing no signs of slowing down anytime soon.
